Oh B4k I've been reading about the Disintegration loops and decided I really really wanna listen to them all.

why

Album Rating: 4.5

Because I listened to some YT vids of them and such and they're gorgeous... Lately I've really been digging ambient music hard so I'm sure that they'll be just my cup o' tea.

Listen to my ambient split with witchrapist (my latest list has all the deets including the right tracklisting) while you're at it.

yeah thought i listend to that split but it turns out someone was scatting in my ears lol no but i listened later and it was not so good

good review. I like this quite a bit

Album Rating: 3.5

I'm not sure how this is pretentious or grandiose. If anything it's power comes from how understated everything is. It fucking drones.



I like the review otherwise.

good review, everything you said made sense and you backed it all up...





but of course i disagree whole-heartedly.



and i agree with streetlight. i dont think long songs with simple structures = pretentiousness.

Album Rating: 4.5

I think the overall idea might be better described as pretentious than anything else

Album Rating: 4.0

yeah the conceptual side of things for sure... a 75 page booklet about a religious figures that many scholars dont know about?



well at least they pull it off.

Album Rating: 4.5

except if you pull something off it's not even really correct to use the word pretentious, which is why that word is almost always used in a retarded way. Something can only be pretentious if it doesn't pull it off, and instead of explaining why it doesn't, a lot of times people just try to claim something (TMV gets this a lot) is "pretentious" and pretend like that's what makes it bad, which makes no sense at all.

I'm saying that the way they go about making it so long-winded as though to make it long or to support the concept is really flawed and contrived, thus pretentious etc. douchebaggery

Album Rating: 4.0

i dont think the fact that it is long-winded has as much to do with the concept as it does with the actual musical aesthetic. if they wanted to support the concept in that way wouldnt they just add a whole lot more lyrics?



the length of the tracks is for the benefit of the music not the concept. i doubt hunter would be a very good song if it was 4 minutes long.

album is a huge drag with some small amounts of good stuff slipped in

the first half of (and particularly the chorus of) hfs 40000 is my favorite thing on this. maybe cause it sorta clears the fog left by the rest of the album
